What’s Going To Happen

It’s not like these two haven’t had anything to deal with over the last several weeks.

On the field, Houston came back after having to miss its first game and got the job done against Arizona on the road. The offense didn’t explode, but it was a nice win over a brand name Power Five team.

Rice overcame its embarrassment in Australia against Stanford with a dominant win over UTEP. All of a sudden, the offense woke up, and the Owls started to look and play like a real team again after all of the issues from last year.

The Rice defensive front hasn’t been all that bad at getting to the quarterback, but the passing game hasn’t worked well enough to keep up. The Cougar attack will get is chance to open things up a bit, the defensive front will attack the Owl ground game, and it’ll be an easy win for Major Applewhite before dealing with Texas Tech next week.
